LA's Langer’s Deli owner threatens closure after telling Mayor he wants customers to feel safe

After the owner of Langer's Deli expressed wanting to close down the legendary restaurant due to safety concerns around MacArthur Park in Los Angeles' Westlake District, owner Norm Langer met with LA Mayor Karen Bass.

Langer said he's standing by his ultimatum to the city to clean up the area or he's ready to close his doors for good.

"I have no choice. I'm tired of pushing the cart uphill," Langer told FOX 11's Ed Laskos.

The threat triggered immediate action from the very top of City Hall. A photo from the sit-down meeting with Bass showed them laying their cards down on the table, with the mayor taking notes.
